[ExI] Libertarianism wins again...

[Dan]

Any solution with government oversight is not libertarian. (Also, modern corporations are creatures of the state. A true free market would likely have very different institutions.)

Overthrow all governments now!

Sorry to the video haters... this guy starts off with blood minerals
and child labor, and gets to a solution.

Light governmental oversight of corporations trying to do the right
thing is the only solution that works globally. Transparency and data
are the only things that enable ethical behavior on the part of
consumers. Use contracts, the only multinational institution that
suppliers care about.

This guy is a total liberal who has fallen into the logical trap that
is Libertarianism.
